Automatic process modeling has become an effective tool in reducing the lead-time and the cost for designing forming processes. The numerical modeling process is performed on a fully coupled damage constitutive equations and the advanced 3D adaptive remeshing procedure. Based on continuum damage mechanics, an isotropic damage model coupled with the Johnson–Cook flow law is proposed to satisfy the thermodynamic and damage requirements in metals. The Lemaitre damage potential was chosen to control the damage evolution process and the effective configuration. These fully coupled constitutive equations have been implemented into a Dynamic Explicit finite element code Abaqus using user subroutine. On the other hand, an adaptive remeshing scheme in three dimensions is established to constantly update the deformed mesh to enable tracking of the large plastic deformations. The quantitative effects of coupled ductile damage and adaptive remeshing on the sheet metal forming are studied, and qualitative comparison with some available experimental data are given. As illustrated in the presented examples this overall strategy ensures a robust and efficient remeshing scheme for finite element simulation of sheet metal‐forming processes.

A friction heating incremental forming (FHIF) is proposed, which does not require external heating. By means of orthogonal experimental, finite element analysis and CATIA reverse engineering methods, the forming characteristics of magnesium alloy AZ31B FHIF are studied, such as forming limit angle, dimensional accuracy, thickness distribution, equivalent stress and equivalent strain at different forming stages. The results show that: For the FHIF, the forming limit angle can be up to 76°, and the most obvious way to increase the forming limit angle is to increase the spindle speed. In the FHIF, due to the limitations of the experimental conditions, it will be different from the ideal model. The bending phenomenon first occurs in the early stage of forming, which makes the upper corner part the worst accuracy, and the lower corner part obvious defects. Compared with the theoretically stable thickness, the actual part sidewall is thinned by 11%. The simulation successfully predicts and observes the thickness change and stress-strain change trend of the entire FHIF.

Friction is the main phenomenon that has a huge influence on the flow behavior of deformed material in sheet metal forming operations. Sheet metal forming methods are one of the most popular processes of obtaining finished products, especially in aerospace, automobile, and defense industries. Methods of sheet forming are carried out at different temperatures. So, it requires tribological tests that suitably represent the contact phenomena related to the temperature. The knowledge of the friction properties of the sheet is required for the proper design of the conditions of manufacturing processes and tools. This paper summarizes the methods used to describe friction conditions in conventional sheet metal forming and incremental sheet forming that have been developed over a period of time. The following databases have been searched: WebofKowledge, Scopus, Baztool, Bielefield Academic Search Engine, DOAJ Directory of Open Access Journals, eLibrary.ru, FreeFullPdf, GoogleScholar, INGENTA, Polish Scientific Journals Database, ScienceDirect, Springer, WorldCat, WorldWideScience. The English language is selected as the main source of review. However, in a limited scope, databases in Polish and Russian languages are also used. Many methods of friction testing for tribological studies are selected and presented. Some of the methods are observed to have a huge potential in characterizing frictional resistance. The application of these methods and main results have also been provided. Parameters affecting the frictional phenomena and the role of friction have also been explained. The main disadvantages and limitations of the methods of modeling the friction phenomena in specific areas of material to be formed have been discussed. The main findings are as follows—The tribological tests can be classified into direct and indirect measurement tests of the coefficient of friction (COF). In indirect methods of determination, the COF is determined based on measuring other physical quantities. The disadvantage of this type of methods is that they allow the determination of the average COF values, but they do not allow measuring and determining the real friction resistance. In metal forming operations, there exist high local pressures that intensify the effects of adhesion and plowing in the friction resistance. In such conditions, due to the plastic deformation of the material tested, the usage of the formula for the determination of the COF based on the Coulomb friction model is limited. The applicability of the Coulomb friction model to determine the COF is also very limited in the description of contact phenomena in hot SMF due to the high shear of adhesion in total contact resistance.
